Shipping Questions

HOW DO I PACKAGE MY ITEMS FOR SHIPMENT? You can pack your item by wrapping it in multiple layers of bubble wrap. You can also use old newspapers or magazines to provide adequate protection. Be sure to use a sturdy box that is big enough to allow for a couple of inches of space between the box and the device you are shipping. Once your item is in the box, be sure to use plenty of tape around any edges that may be prone to opening. Once you have printed the label out, tape the label securely to the box. Try to make sure the barcode is free of any folds or creases. You can then drop your item off at your local post office or provide it to your local mail carrier from the comfort of your home.

WHAT HAPPENS IF MY ITEM IS LOST DURING SHIPPING? All items that are shipped to us are insured and covered in case the item is lost during shipment. The insurance only applies to items that have been scanned in by the post office or mail carrier proving that the item has been shipped. Every item that is shipped with USPS is scanned once the item is picked up. If the item was never scanned, then there is no proof that the item has ever been shipped. In these cases, insurance will not cover claims of lost items. Please be sure to write down the tracking number of any shipped items or take an image of the shipping label for your personal records.

CAN I TRACK MY ITEM ONCE IT HAS BEEN SHIPPED? Yes, all items will be trackable through USPS. Please make sure you record the tracking number on your printed label.

DO I NEED TO GO TO THE POST OFFICE IN PERSON TO SHIP MY ITEM? No, you may give your box to your local mail carrier who can scan your item and pick it up from the comfort of your home or business. You may also take your item to the post office if you desire.
